    Comments about Shimano Baitrunner 8000 D Spinning Reel:

    This is a great reel for the money. Not the CI4 frame like the Thunnus, but for less money its a great choice in my opinion. Extremely versatile reel for trolling kingfish, casting to tarpon, sharks, cobia, or bottom fishing for grouper or snapper.

    • Was this a gift?:
    • No

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
